ARTICLE 2 – CLASSIFICATIONS AND RECLASSIFICATIONS A. Bargaining unit employees’ level and scope of assigned duties shall be documented in

their job descriptions which shall be established and classified by the University. If an employee’s duties and responsibilities undergo significant changes, the affected position(s) may be reviewed as described hereafter in this Article. The official University-approved 2009 class specifications, which are guidelines only, may be found online at https://www.chr.ucla.edu/hr-administration/compensation-and-classification/ classification-specifications. Proposed changes to the class specifications that impact employees’ terms and conditions of employment will be subject to meet and confer. The University agrees to send copies, via U.S. Mail and email, of any changes to revised job descriptions to Teamsters Local 2010’s address of record.

B. 1. If, during the term of this Agreement, the Union believes that certain bargaining

unit members are working out of class, it may submit the position(s) of these bargaining unit members to Campus Human Resources or Healthcare Human Resources, as appropriate, for review. Campus Human Resources or Healthcare Human Resources shall provide a response to the request within 90 (ninety) days after receiving the submission from the Union unless the Union and the University mutually agree to an extension.

2. The University’s Compensation unit will determine whether or not the employee has been working out of class by evaluating the core functions and duties of the position and comparing them to pre-defined job families or classifications specifications and comparable positions within the organization and/or external to the organization. Factors that may be considered include, but are not limited to, the scope of responsibility and skill and competencies required to perform the position. The classification review process will include a review of job descriptions and interviews with the incumbent and may include at least one of the following:

a. review of the organizational chart;

b. review of any supplemental information;

c. interviews with the supervisor and/or manager or subject matter experts;

or

d. review of a position questionnaire or survey.

b. Within fourteen (14) calendar days of the request, the Campus Labor Relations

Director or designee shall convene a Compensation Review Conference. The Union shall be entitled to respond to the review, orally or in writing, including any facts and/or arguments which the employee and/or the Union wishes to convey to the University.

d. After the University’s decision is issued, the parties may mutually agree to non-

binding mediation. C. 1. The University and the Union agree that employees shall be assigned work

consistent with the employee’s job description.

2. An employee who is temporarily assigned by University management to perform substantially all of the duties on a full-time basis of a classification with a higher base rate than the employee’s regular appointment for a period of five (5) consecutive working days or more, shall be paid the higher base rate for all hours worked in the temporary assignment.

ARTICLE 3 - DEFINITIONS A. Break in Service

A break in service is any separation from employment status. In addition, a break in service occurs, effective the last day on pay status, whether or not a separation form is submitted, when an employee is off pay status for four (4) complete, consecutive calendar months without an approved leave without pay, furlough, or temporary layoff. A return to pay status from an approved leave without pay, furlough, temporary layoff, during a period of right to recall and preference for reemployment, or on the next working day following a separation is not a break in service.

B. Address of Record

It shall be the responsibility of each employee to inform the University in writing of his/her current home address and of any change in such address, and the information so provided shall constitute "the employee's last known home address." Via the File Transfer Program, the University shall make accessible to the Union a report of bargaining unit members. The report will include the employee's name, classification, date of hire, department and home address. Home addresses shall be made available to the Union provided that the employee has authorized, in writing, the release of his/her address. The release of home addresses shall be pursuant to Government Code Section 6254.3. For purposes of Article 42 - No Strike/No Lockout, notice to the home addresses provided herein shall meet the Union's obligation.

C. Seniority

1. As used in the Layoff Article, seniority is calculated by the number of full time equivalent months (or hours) of UCLA service, excluding employment prior to a break in service. When employees have the same number of full-time equivalent months (or hours), the employee with the most recent date of appointment is considered the least senior.

2. As used in the Vacation, Promotions & Transfers, Hours of Work and Overtime

Articles, seniority is determined by the date of appointment of the employee to the classification. If employees have the same date of appointment to the classification, the one with the most recent appointment to the shop or work location shall be the least senior.

D. Rates of Pay

1. Base rate is the amount listed for the class in Appendix B - Wage Schedule.

2. Regular hourly rate is the employee’s base rate plus any shift differential, on-call pay and hazardous duty pay.

E. Classifications

The term “classification” shall refer to the job title and title codes listed in Article 1, Recognition.

Bargaining unit employees who are not regularly assigned to the UCLA Health System but who may be assigned to work at those locations from time to time will not be required to wear the uniforms provided by the UCLA Health System. If a department decides to change current departmental practice during the life of this Agreement or any extension thereof, the University will notify the Union and the parties agree to meet and confer on the subject of uniforms.

ARTICLE 14 - OVERTIME A. Management Authority and Responsibility

1. Nothing herein is intended to limit or restrict the authority of management to require any employee to perform overtime work. Overtime shall be defined as hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours. Bargaining unit employees shall be entitled to overtime compensation for all hours of work in excess of eight (8) hours worked in a day and that CTO, sick leave, vacation leave, holidays, jury or witness duty taken prior to said eight (8) hours of work shall not circumvent that entitlement.

2. As soon as practicable after the University decides upon the need for overtime or

additional work, the University shall notify the employee(s) it selects that overtime must be worked or that the employee(s) must work beyond his/her regularly assigned shift. An employee may decline such assignments under special circumstances and a supervisor shall make a sincere effort to relieve an employee working overtime whenever said employee so requests. However, wherever it is necessary to meet the operational requirements of the University, the University shall have the right to require the performance of such work, including requiring employees to remain at work after conclusion of their shift until relief is available.

B. Distribution of Overtime

1. The University shall attempt to assign overtime work equitably among all qualified employees in the same classification in the same organizational unit and work location. In the assignment of overtime under this provision, management may consider special skills required to perform particular work.

2. At each organizational unit work location, the University will post the previous

twelve (12) months of overtime distribution. Employees who are offered overtime and who decline it will have the overtime recorded as if it had been worked. All employees at the organizational unit work location will be listed as eligible for overtime.

C. Overtime Rate and Method of Compensation

1. For all employees in the bargaining unit who work a standard work schedule, all hours worked in excess of eight (8) hours in a day shall be compensated at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the regular hourly rate.

For all employees in the bargaining unit, compensation shall be at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the regular hourly rate for all hours worked on the employee's regular scheduled day(s) off.

Any scheduled overtime which is not contiguous to an employee’s normal schedule, shall be a minimum of four (4) hours and shall be paid at one and one-half (1-1/2) the regular hourly rate.

2. For purposes of calculating the overtime rate for hours worked as mentioned in

24

Page 28: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE REGENTS … · 2017. 4. 5. · memorandum of understanding . between . the regents of the university of california and its . university of

C.1. above, the regular hourly rate shall include: the employee’s, base rate, shift differential, on-call, hazardous duty pay. When an employee is employed at more than one base rate, overtime earned at the time and one-half rate shall be calculated based on the base rate in effect when the overtime is earned.

3. Notwithstanding Section C.1. above, overtime compensation earned at the time

and one-half rate may be accrued as compensatory time at the employee’s option provided that no more than one hundred twenty (120) hours of compensatory time may be accrued in any calendar year. Employees may request to receive payment of hours in his/her compensatory time bank on the first pay date in June and the first pay date in December of each year. A maximum of one hundred twenty (120) hours of compensatory time may be carried over into the next calendar year. The total amount of compensatory time carried over shall be credited to the maximum one-hundred twenty (120) hours compensatory time accrual for that year. (For example, an employee who chooses to carry over eighty (80) hours into the following calendar year shall only be allowed to accrue a maximum forty (40) hours in the new calendar year.)

4. An employee shall request use of compensatory time off a minimum of four

(4) work days in advance of the desired time off, except in an emergency. The supervisor will not unreasonably deny the use of compensatory time. The supervisor’s approval of the use of compensatory time will be subject to the operational needs of the University.

5. Upon separation from employment, an employee shall be paid any banked

compensatory time earned at the premium rate at the then current rate of pay or at the employee's average rate of pay for the last three (3) years of employment, whichever is higher.

6. Overtime shall not be paid more than once for any hours worked, and there shall

be no pyramiding of overtime. D. Overtime Meal Allowance

When an employee is required to extend his/her regularly assigned shift more than three (3) hours, and that period extends past the employee's regular meal time, he/she shall be paid an overtime meal allowance of twelve dollars ($12.00). A person who is scheduled to work planned overtime is not entitled to be paid for a meal, even though this overtime requires him/her to work past a regular meal time.

E. Time Off Between Shifts

In the event an employee is required to change his/her shift and this change results in less than twelve (12) hours between shifts, the employee shall be paid at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the regular hourly rate for all hours worked within the twelve (12) hours between the old and new assigned shift.

ARTICLE 19 – WORK-INCURRED INJURY OR ILLNESS A. This Article sets forth the application of sick leave and vacation for employees who are

unable to work due to a work-incurred injury or illness compensable under the California Workers' Compensation Act and applicable California Workers’ Compensation laws, regulations, and guidelines and provides extended sick leave for such employees when sick leave is exhausted and when employees are still unable to work because of such injury or illness. In order to be treated by their own doctors, employees must file a written “Designation of Treating Physician” with their department prior to any illness or injury occurring.

B. Pre-Designation of Personal Physician

1. An employee may be treated by their own personal physician within the first 30 days of a work-related injury or illness if the employee has a “Pre-Designation of Personal Physician” form on file with their department prior to an occurrence of an illness or injury. The personal physician’s requests for services may be subject to utilization review. Treatment, reporting and billing must be in accordance with California Workers’ Compensation laws, regulations, and guidelines. Additionally, if an employee has a “Notice of Personal Chiropractor or Personal Acupuncturist” on file with their department prior to the injury or illness, after 30 days, the employee may be able to transfer care to the personal chiropractor or acupuncturist for a maximum of 24 visits, after which, this type of provider would no longer qualify to remain as the personal physician.

2. The claims administrator has the right to select the employee’s treating doctor for

the first 30 days after the employer knows of a work-related injury or illness. After the first 30 days, the employee may be treated by a physician or facility of their choice within a reasonable geographic area.

C. Use of Accrued Sick Leave and Vacation

1. An employee who accrues sick leave and vacation shall be permitted to use accrued sick leave and vacation to supplement temporary disability payments received under the California Workers' Compensation Act.

2. Sick leave and vacation payments shall be the difference between the amount

payable to the employee under the Workers' Compensation Act and the employee's regular salary. The additional payment made to an employee to provide the employee with the full salary prior to receipt of disability payments shall be deemed an advance temporary disability payment within the Workers' Compensation Act.

3. An employee who receives advance temporary disability payment shall

reimburse the University for such payment. The reimbursement is used to restore proportionate sick leave and vacation credit as appropriate.

4. An employee who is receiving temporary disability payments and supplemental

sick leave or vacation as described in Sections C.1. through 3. above, is considered on regular pay status, except for completion of the probationary

36

D. Extended Sick Leave

1.

If such an employee returns to part-time University duties, the earnings plus any temporary disability payments, if less than eighty percent (80%) of basic salary plus shift differential, shall be supplemented to eighty percent (80%) by extended sick leave payments, provided the employee continues to be medically authorized for Workers' Compensation temporary disability. Total extended sick leave payments shall not exceed twenty-six (26) weeks for any one injury or illness. Extended sick leave constitutes an advance against permanent disability payments.

2. An eligible employee who does not have sufficient accrued sick leave to cover

the three (3) calendar days' waiting period for receiving Workers' Compensation payments shall receive extended sick leave payment to cover any part of the waiting period not covered by sick leave. Payment shall be made only after determination that the injury or illness is compensable under Workers' Compensation.

3. An employee who elects not to use all sick leave is not eligible for extended sick

leave benefits.

4. An employee who is receiving temporary disability payments and extended sick leave benefits is considered to be on regular pay status, except for completion of the probationary period. However, sick leave and vacation accrued during this period are credited to the employee only upon return to work. If an employee separates without returning to work, the employee shall be paid for vacation for the period the employee received extended leave payment.

E. Leave Without Pay

An employee on leave without pay and receiving temporary disability payments, accrues sick leave and vacation on the same basis as if regularly employed. Such accrued sick leave shall only be credited to the employee upon return to work. Vacation leave accrued while the employee was receiving temporary disability payments shall be credited to the employee if the employee returns to work. If an employee separates without returning to work, payment shall be made for the accrued vacation credit.

F. Family and Medical Leave

An employee who is receiving supplemental leave (sick leave and/or vacation) and/or extended sick leave as described in Sections C. and D. above, shall have that time counted towards the 12-workweek entitlement to family and medical leave, provided that

5. Duration. Family Care and Medical Leave shall not exceed twelve (12)

workweeks in any calendar year and the leave year shall commence on January 1 of each year.

of grievances shall be on pay status as follows:

1. a maximum of ten (10) non-cumulative hours per month will be granted for such activities; and,

parties to mutually resolve grievance(s) during the scheduled work time of an employee who is a grievant or a representative, upon reasonable advance request to the appropriate Campus or UCLA Health System Labor Relation’s Office, reasonable release time shall be granted to the employee(s) involved. Employee time spent at these meetings shall be considered as time worked.

c. When such meetings are convened outside an employee's scheduled work

time, no employee release time shall be granted.

ARTICLE 27 - ARBITRATION PROCEDURE

A. Request for Arbitration

1. A request for arbitration may be made only by the Union and only after exhaustion of the Grievance Procedure except as provided in Article 25, Section G (Disciplinary Review Conference) of this Agreement. The written request for arbitration must be sent by mail with proof of service or email. The written request for arbitration must be received by the appropriate Campus or UCLA Health System Labor Relation’s Office within thirty (30) calendar days of the Union’s receipt of the Step 3 grievance decision.

2. An appeal to arbitration shall not prohibit efforts by the University and Teamsters

Local 2010 to resolve the grievance during the time the appeal is pending and until such time that an arbitrator has rendered his or her decision.

3. Teamsters Local 2010 shall have full authority to settle, withdraw or otherwise

dispose of any grievance brought on behalf of the union and/or on the behalf of employees. An agreement by the parties to settle, withdraw, or otherwise dispose of a grievance appealed to arbitration shall be binding upon the grievant(s).

B. Selection of Arbitrators

1. Within fourteen (14) calendar days of a request for arbitration, the parties shall

attempt to reach agreement on an arbitrator from the List of Arbitrators contained in Appendix A. If no agreement is reached, the parties shall use the arbitrators listed herein by randomly drawing three names. The first arbitrator's name drawn shall be contacted and if the arbitrator's first available date is more than sixty (60) calendar days from the date of the request, the parties may agree to contact the second arbitrator's name drawn. If the second arbitrator's first available date is more than sixty (60) calendar days from the date of request, the parties may agree to contact the third arbitrator. If the third arbitrator is not available as specified above, the selection process shall be repeated until an arbitrator is selected.

2. The parties, by written mutual agreement, may agree to waive or modify the

process for selecting an arbitrator as described in Section B.1 above on a case-by-case basis.

C. Scope of Arbitration

1. Unless there is an agreement by both parties to modify the scope of the hearing,

the issue(s) to be heard by the arbitrator shall solely and in its entirety be restricted to the Article(s) filed with the grievance. Issues or allegations which were known or should have been known to either party but not introduced by Step 3 of the Grievance Procedure shall not be introduced by either party at the arbitration hearing, except as provided in Section C.2 below.

2. When practicable, the University shall inform Teamsters Local 2010 in writing of

its intent to assert the issue of arbitrability prior to the selection of the arbitrator according to Section B.1. above. The issue(s) of arbitrability shall be resolved in a hearing prior to and separate from the hearing (if any) about the substantive facts

62

Page 66: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE REGENTS … · 2017. 4. 5. · memorandum of understanding . between . the regents of the university of california and its . university of

and/or allegations in dispute, except as provided in Section C.3., below. In such a case, the parties shall use the selection process described in Section B.1. above to select two (2) arbitrators. The first arbitrator will be selected to hear the issues of arbitrability and the second arbitrator will be selected to decide the merits of the case if the issues are determined to be arbitrable. Unless either party requests a full and complete arbitration proceeding on the arbitrability issue, the first arbitrator shall issue either a bench decision, or upon either party’s request, a written decision within 7 calendar days of the completion of the arbitrability hearing. In the event that the first arbitrator, as a result of the arbitrability hearing referenced above determines a matter to be arbitrable, the first arbitrator shall have no authority to decide the issues pursuant to the merits of the case. A hearing on the merits of the case will be scheduled with the second arbitrator, unless the parties agree otherwise.

3. If the University raises the issue of arbitrability for the first time after the selection

of an arbitrator, a single hearing on the issue of arbitrability and the substantive facts will be held, unless the parties agree otherwise. The hearing(s) shall proceed as described in Section D below.

4. Section C.1 and Section C.2 above shall not prevent the parties from agreeing in

writing to combine the arbitrability hearing with the hearing on the merits of the case or from agreeing to separate hearings on the arbitrability and the merits of the case before a single arbitrator.

D. Arbitration Procedure

1. The arbitration procedure shall provide an opportunity for the Union and the University to examine and cross-examine witnesses under oath and to submit relevant evidence. Relevant material and the names of all witnesses who are to be called shall be identified and provided to the opposing party prior to the hearing. At least seven (7) calendar days prior to the hearing, each party shall make a good-faith effort to disclose to the other side the following:

a. a list of proposed witnesses; b. a list and copy of proposed documentary evidence; and c. a list and copy of any other proposed evidence.

The failure to timely disclose these lists or copies of evidence may, at the discretion of the arbitrator, result in the exclusion of evidence from the arbitration.

2. The arbitrator may not admit settlement discussions or offers as evidence at the

arbitration hearing.

3. Prior to the arbitration, the Union and the University shall attempt to stipulate as to the issue(s) to be arbitrated and to as many facts as possible.

4. Settlement proposals may be offered at any stage prior to or during arbitration.

5. The arbitration hearing shall be closed to the public unless the parties otherwise agree.

6. The arbitrator shall have the authority to subpoena and require the attendance of

witnesses and production of documents upon the reasonable request of either party.

7. In all cases appealed to arbitration pursuant to the terms of this Article and this

Agreement, Teamsters Local 2010 has the burden of initiating the steps in the procedure. Except for those cases in which the issue is that of actions taken by the University pursuant to Article 25 - Discipline & Dismissal, Teamsters Local 2010 shall have the burden of proof. In cases in which the issue is that of actions taken by the University pursuant to Article 25 - Discipline & Dismissal, the University shall have the burden of proof. For all arbitrations, the burden of proof shall be preponderance of the evidence. The arbitrator shall not have the authority to heighten or lessen the burden of proof.

8. The arbitrator, following the close of the record of the hearing, shall consider the

evidence presented and render a written decision. The written decision shall include a brief description of each issue under submission, the position of the parties, the findings of fact, the arbitrator's conclusion(s) as to violation of the Agreement, if any, and, where appropriate, a remedy. The arbitrator shall be limited to interpreting the written provisions of the Agreement regarding the issues submitted and shall have no power to add to, delete from, or otherwise alter the terms of the Agreement. If the arbitrator determines that a grievance was not received by the University within the time limits set forth in Article 26, Section B, the arbitrator shall have no jurisdiction to decide the merits of the grievance.

9. The arbitrator's and stenographer’s fees shall be borne equally by the parties.

Expenses for other services or facilities shall be borne by the party requesting such services or facilities unless the parties agree otherwise in advance.

E. Decision and Remedy

1. If the grievance is sustained in whole or in part, and subject to the limitations set forth in Paragraph 2 below, the remedy shall not exceed restoring to the employee the pay, benefits, or rights lost as a result of a violation of the Agreement, less any compensation and benefits received from any source, including, but not limited to, Workers' Compensation and Unemployment Insurance benefits. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding and distributed to the parties within thirty (30) calendar days of the close of the record of the hearing, unless the arbitrator notifies the parties that the time frame can not be met.

2. The arbitrator shall have no authority to award back wages or other monetary

reimbursement, nor shall the University be liable on a grievance claiming back wages or other monetary reimbursement for:

a. Any period of time during which an extension of time limits has been

granted by the University at the request of the Union; or,

64

Page 68: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE REGENTS … · 2017. 4. 5. · memorandum of understanding . between . the regents of the university of california and its . university of

b. Any period of time between the first date the arbitrator is available for an arbitration hearing and the date of the hearing, when the first date is rejected by the Union; or,

c. Any period of time greater than sixty (60) calendar days prior to the date of

the filing of the grievance at Step 2 of the Grievance Procedure, except for the correction of mathematical, calculation, recording or accounting errors. For grievances involving the correction of an error in the payment of wages or the correction of mathematical calculations, recording or accounting errors relating to the payment of wages (for example vacation leave, holidays, overtime, military leave or the amount of shift differentials, if any) shall not be made retroactive to a date earlier than two years prior to the date of the filing of the grievance at Step 2 of the Grievance Procedure.

F. Release Time and Pay Status

1. Whenever an arbitration hearing or a meeting between the parties is convened to resolve an arbitration during the regular work time of an employee who is a grievant or a representative, release time with pay shall be granted to the employee(s) and one representative involved in said hearing or meeting so long as a request for release time is received at least twenty-four (24) hours in advance. For purposes of release time, it shall be assumed the employee is a day shift employee.

2. University employees called as witnesses shall be released from work, with

reasonable advance request to the appropriate Campus or UCLA Health System Labor Relation’s Office, and granted leave with pay for reasonable time spent in meetings between the parties convened to resolve the arbitration and for the arbitration hearing.

3. Time spent in preparation for arbitration shall be on pay status as follows:

a. a maximum of ten (10) hours per month will be granted for arbitration-

related activity; and, b. a request for the release time described in subsection (a) above must be

G. Time Limits

For the purposes of this Article, time limits are calculated in calendar days, unless otherwise stated and deadlines that fall on a day that is not a University business day will automatically be extended to the next business day. All time limits may be extended by mutual written agreement of the parties in advance of the expiration of the time limit.

ARTICLE 28 - LAYOFF AND REDUCTION IN TIME A. Should the University determine that layoffs are necessary due to lack of work or

lack of funds, the following shall apply. B. Definitions

1. Temporary layoff affecting a career position is for a specified period of less than four (4) calendar months from the date of layoff.

2. Indefinite layoff affecting a career position is one which is four (4) or more

calendar months.

3. Reduction in time is either temporary or indefinite and affects a career position resulting in a reduction in the percentage of full-time employment.

4. Whenever the term layoff is used in this Agreement it shall be construed to

encompass both indefinite layoff and indefinite reduction in time as defined above.

C. The University shall attempt to minimize indefinite layoffs from career positions by

first reviewing the necessity for existing casual positions within the department. When a vacancy exists within the layoff unit in an active career position in other classes in the department which are at the same salary level (as determined by the salary range maximum) as the employee's current position, the department head shall reassign an employee scheduled for indefinite layoff to that position, provided that the department head determines that the employee is qualified to perform the duties of that position.

D. Temporary Layoff and Temporary Reduction in Time

1. An employee shall be given written notice of the effective date and the ending date of a temporary layoff or reduction in time. Whenever possible, the notice shall be given at least twenty (20) calendar days prior to the effective date.

2. If an indefinite layoff or indefinite reduction in time should become necessary

while an employee is on temporary layoff or reduction in time, the procedures for indefinite layoff or indefinite reduction in time, as set forth in Section E below, shall be applied.

E. Indefinite Layoff and Indefinite Reduction in Time

1. Indefinite layoffs and reductions in time are by class (title code) or by craft within a department. For purposes of this Article, a craft is defined as employees in the journeyman and lead positions. The order of indefinite layoff and reduction in time of employees in the same class or craft within a department shall be in inverse order of seniority, except that the department head may retain employees irrespective of seniority, who possess skills, knowledge, or abilities which are not possessed by other employees in the same class or craft. Such exceptions shall be documented in writing.

66

Page 70: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE REGENTS … · 2017. 4. 5. · memorandum of understanding . between . the regents of the university of california and its . university of

2. Seniority. Seniority shall be calculated by the number of career full-time equivalent months (or hours) of UCLA service. Employment prior to a break in service shall not be counted. When employees have the same number of full-time equivalent months (or hours), the employee with the most recent date of appointment shall be deemed the least senior.

3. Notice. Whenever feasible, an employee will receive at least thirty (30)

calendar days written notice prior to indefinite layoff or reduction in time. If less than thirty (30) calendar days notice is provided, the employee shall receive straight time pay in lieu of notice for each additional day the employee would have been on pay status had the employee been given thirty (30) calendar days notice. Prior to a layoff, the affected employee shall be notified of benefit continuation and unemployment insurance processes and, in addition, a non-probationary career employee shall be informed of the procedures for recall and preferential rehire.

F. Reemployment from Indefinite Layoff

1. Right of Recall to Department of Layoff. A non-probationary career employee who is separated or whose time base is reduced because of an indefinite layoff shall be recalled in order of seniority into any active and vacant career position for which the employee is qualified. Such position must be in the same class or craft, department and at the same or lesser percentage of time as the position held at the time of layoff.

2. Preference for Reemployment or Transfer. A non-probationary career

employee who has been separated or whose time has been reduced due to indefinite layoff or who has received written notice of indefinite layoff or reduction in time within the two (2) calendar months prior to the effective date of layoff shall be granted preference within the Unit for reemployment or transfer to any active or vacant career position for which the employee is qualified provided the position is:

a. At the same salary level or lower (as determined by the salary range

maximum), and,

b. At the same or lesser percentage of time as the position held at the time of layoff.

3. Rejection of Employees With Reemployment Rights. Department heads may

reject a non-probationary career employee with preference for reemployment or transfer only if the employee lacks qualifications required of the position. Written reasons for rejection shall be provided by the department head to the employee and to the Union.

4. Reemployment at Another University Location. The Employment Manager shall

assist a non-probationary career employee on indefinite layoff who wishes to seek employment at another campus or laboratory.

67

G. Duration of Recall and Preference Rights

1. A non-probationary career employee with less than five (5) years of seniority shall have recall and preference rights for reemployment for a period of one (1) year from date of layoff.

2. A non-probationary career employee with at least five (5) but less than ten (10) years of seniority shall have recall and preference rights for reemployment for a period of two (2) years from date of layoff.

3. A non-probationary career employee with ten (10) or more years of seniority

shall have recall and preference rights for reemployment for a period of three (3) years from the date of layoff.

4. Employees shall respond affirmatively to periodic inquiries as to their desire to

return or availability. In the event that an employee is no longer available or desires not to return, the right to recall and preference for reemployment shall expire one year after the effective date of layoff.

5. Rights to recall and preference for reemployment continue during, but are not

extended by, temporary periods of employment in casual University positions. H. Termination of Right to Recall and Preference

Right to recall and preference for reemployment terminate if an employee:

a. Refuses an offer to return to a position, at the same or greater percentage of time, to the department and class or craft from which laid off; or,

b. Accepts a career position at the same or higher salary level and the same or

greater percentage of time as the position held at the time of layoff; or,

c. Refuses two (2) offers of employment for a career position at the same or higher salary level and the same percentage of time as the position held at the time of layoff; or,

d. Is no longer available for the reasons specified in Section G.4 above; or,

e. Fails to respond to written notice of an employment opportunity.

I. Acceptance of Employment

Preference for reemployment terminates if an employee accepts any career position at UCLA.

J. Service Upon Reemployment

Reemployment within the period of right to recall and preference for reemployment or from temporary layoff provides continuity of service. Benefits and seniority accrue only when on pay status.

2. The University's contribution to the cost of a University sponsored health plan will

be provided for an employee on temporary layoff or reduction in time for a maximum of three (3) months in a calendar year where the employee's earnings are insufficient to otherwise generate the University's contribution.

3. Retirement system regulations determine the effect on retirement benefits while an

employee is on indefinite or temporary layoff

ARTICLE 29 – SAFETY COMMITTEE A. Joint Labor-Management Safety Committee

The University and the Union will establish a joint Labor-Management Safety Committee for the skilled crafts unit. Said committee will discuss the implementation of safety regulations and safety training and make recommendations to the University regarding such matters and such other issues as the parties shall mutually agree to. When recommendations of the Safety Committee are adopted and/or implemented by the University, or any of its departments, they shall be distributed to the affected bargaining unit employees and their supervisors or managers.

B. Composition of Committee

The Committee shall be composed of no more than five (5) bargaining unit employees, two (2) non-employee Teamsters Local 2010 staff representatives and no more than eight (8) University representatives. The eighth University representative, if any, shall be a non-participating facilitator. Upon mutual agreement, each party may include additional representatives at the meetings of the Committee.

C. Meetings of Committee

The Committee shall meet quarterly unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The procedures by which the Committee operates and the agenda items to be discussed shall be determined by mutual agreement of the parties. Public Records documents, including but not limited to Cal OSHA 300 Logs, shall be available to Committee members, upon request.

ARTICLE 30 – HEALTH & SAFETY A. Safety

1. It is the duty of the University to make a reasonable effort to provide and maintain a safe place of employment. The University will provide appropriate safety training to bargaining unit employees. The Union will cooperate by encouraging all employees covered by this Agreement to perform their work in a safe manner, including but not limited to complying with UCLA's Injury and Illness Prevention Programs.

(See: https://www.ehs.ucla.edu/ip/iipp, http://www.mednet.ucla.edu/Policies/pdf/ enterprise/HS8000.pdf, and http://www.mednet.ucla.edu/Policies/pdf/sm/ 1100.pdf)

2. It is the duty of all employees covered by this Agreement, in the course of

performing their assigned duties, to be alert to unsafe practices, equipment, and conditions, and to follow the safety regulations and requirements of the University, and to report any unsafe practices or hazardous conditions to their immediate supervisors. Employees who believe they have been subjected to reprisal for making such reports may make complaints pursuant to the University's Whistleblower Policy.

3. An employee shall not be required to perform work which he/she reasonably

believes is unsafe, including work assignments for which he/she does not have the proper training, skill set or equipment, until the safety concern of the employee has been reviewed by Environment, Health and Safety or designee. Management shall contact Environment, Health and Safety or designee, and the employee may be reassigned to perform other work. If the work in question is determined to be safe by the Director of Environment, Health and Safety or designee, the employee may be ordered to perform the work. If the safety matter is not resolved satisfactorily, the Union may consult with the appropriate UCLA Campus or Health System Labor Relations Director or designee, who shall investigate the safety matter and advise the Department and the Union of any findings or recommendations. The parties may agree to engage in non-binding mediation.

4. If an employee believes he or she cannot perform assigned duties based on his

or her health condition, the employee must immediately inform the supervisor who may in the supervisor's sole discretion, temporarily re-assign the employee's job duties, refer the employee to a University-selected healthcare provider at the University's expense, or send the employee home. If an employee is sent home, the University may require medical certification releasing the employee to return to work.

When an employee provides documentation that the employee's medical

condition makes it unsafe to perform the duties of his/her position, the provisions of Article 21- Reasonable Accommodation-shall apply.

71

B. Personal Protective Equipment

1. The University reserves the right to require certain unit employees to wear protective clothing.

2. Protective clothing is attire worn over or in place of personal clothing to protect

the employee's clothing from damage or abnormal soiling. Safety equipment protects the employee from exposure to hazardous working conditions. The University shall continue to provide clothing and safety equipment which it currently makes available to the employees covered by this Agreement. If protective clothing (e.g. overalls, coveralls, painter's whites) is required, the University shall provide and maintain such clothing.

3. Each employee who requires corrective safety glasses and is in a classification

which requires the use of safety glasses shall receive one pair of corrective safety glasses per year. The employee shall bring the prescription to his/her supervisor and UCLA shall then purchase the glasses.

4. a. In the month of March of each year, UCLA will furnish safety shoes, valued in

accordance with Appendix J, to all employees in the bargaining unit except that employees hired after January 1st in a given calendar year will be furnished safety shoes in accordance with the University's current contracts upon hire and then again in March of the following year(s) thereafter. Replacement or repair of said shoes is the responsibility of the employee. However, when, in the determination of management, an employee's shoes are defective or become damaged in the course of the performance of the employee's assigned duties, management will replace said shoes as soon as possible, but no later than thirty (30) calendar days from the date of the employee's complaint. If the defective or damaged shoes require a special order (e.g., unusual size or custom-made shoes), management will replace said shoes within sixty (60) calendar days from the date of the employee's complaint. While on pay status, employees shall be required to wear the safety shoes unless otherwise directed by the University.

b. Alternatively, UCLA will provide vouchers valued in Accordance with Appendix

J to all employees in the bargaining unit who request to purchase safety shoes directly from authorized University safety shoe vendors. Nothing precludes a department from issuing vouchers valued in excess of their current departmental practice, in the exercise of its sole management discretion. Employees selecting the option to utilize vouchers will purchase the safety shoes on their own time and will be solely responsible for their replacement when damaged and/or lost.

5. Upon written request by Teamsters Local 2010, the University will meet with the

union on a mutually agreeable date to discuss Personal Protective Equipment, including but not limited to, shirts.

C. Additional Considerations

1. Bargaining unit employees assigned to work in the University's Vivariums will be required to undergo screenings and a series of Hepatitis “B” immunizations which will be provided by the University.

72

Page 76: MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE REGENTS … · 2017. 4. 5. · memorandum of understanding . between . the regents of the university of california and its . university of

2. The University and the Union agree that bargaining unit employees are required to carry out their job duties without endangering their own health or safety or that of other employees. The University and the Union further agree that no employee may manufacture, distribute, dispense, sell, use or be under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs while performing their job duties. To this end, the University and Teamsters Local 2010 agree to schedule meetings within forty-five (45) days of ratification of this agreement to develop a procedure to achieve the University's goal of a drug-free workplace.

3. Uniforms will comply with OSHA regulations where appropriate. Where current

uniforms may not comply with OSHA regulations, the parties agree to a transition period allowing the University phase out the non-compliant uniforms.

D. Disputes

Disputes concerning this Article shall not be subject to the Arbitration Procedure of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 31 - SAFETY LOCKOUT PROGRAM

A. Each appropriate employee shall be supplied with two unique locks and its key, and a multiple locking device. The key shall not be duplicated; however, each Superintendent shall have a master key to the locks used in his/her Shop. The lock will be marked to identify the employee to which it is issued.

B. Each appropriate employee shall also be supplied with tags to use only when the

equipment or disconnect device cannot be locked out. C. Whenever the disconnect site is not immediately visible at all times to the employee

working on the equipment or utility, the employee shall lock the appropriate disconnect switch or circuit breakers. The employee may tag-out the same devices only if the device cannot be locked out. If more than one employee is working on the same equipment or utility, each employee shall lock out or tag out.

D. Potential hazards, such as a machine’s operating parts and certain mechanical

equipment, can slip accidentally. Employees need to prevent this by making any movement impossible by blocking gears, dies, or other mechanisms; by releasing coiled springs, spring-loaded devices, and securing cams; by putting blocks under raised dies or any equipment that might descend, slide or fall; by using blocks or special stands to prevent failure or slippage of the hoist or elevating device under raised vehicles.

E. Locks or tags must be promptly removed when repair or maintenance jobs are

completed. If more than one employee has locked or tagged out, each must remove his/her own lock or tag.

ARTICLE 32 – MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS A. Voluntary Termination

If an employee fails to notify the University of his/her absence, such an absence will be deemed to be unauthorized. If the duration of such an absence is five (5) or more consecutive assigned work days, the employee may be considered to have voluntarily terminated his/her employment with the University. The University shall provide notice and a summary of the information and material upon which the voluntary termination is based. The employee will have five (5) working days from the issuance of the notice within which to respond orally or in writing to the supervisor. If the employee fails to respond, the effective date of the voluntary termination shall be the last day of the notice period. If the employee responds, the University will review the response and notify the employee of the determination and the effective date of the voluntary termination or return to work and the status during the period of absence. A notice will be posted in each shop informing employees whom to contact regarding absences.

B. Lie Detector (Polygraph) Tests

No employee shall be required as a condition of continuing employment to take a lie detector test.

C. Licenses and Certificates of Competence

1. The University, as a condition of employment, shall continue to require such licenses and certificates of competence for given position(s) as per current practice. In order to obtain recertification, the University will provide Division of Apprentice Standards- approved training, on site, up to thirty-two (32) hours at University expense, as is required for electrical certification and Fire Life Safety certification. Proof of valid licensure and/or certification must be given to the University for retention in the employee’s personnel file. An employee’s failure to report either the notice of or actual revocation or suspension of said license, may lead to discipline, up to and including termination. The University shall reassign said employee's job duties where operational circumstances permit; however, said reassignment shall not exceed thirty (30) days unless the University and the Union agree to a greater period of extension and/or reassignment, which said agreement must be reduced to writing. Any employee who fails to maintain required licensure and certification may be terminated unless the employee has been reassigned. Following the expiration of the reassignment and upon the failure to furnish evidence of licensure and/or certification, the employee shall be subject to termination at the end of the reassignment.

2. If, during the term of this Agreement, a new governmental requirement for

licensure and/or certification is established that changes the terms and conditions of employment for bargaining unit employees, the parties shall meet and confer concerning the effects of the new requirement.

3. Bargaining unit employees are required to maintain a valid California Driver’s

License. The University shall provide trucks, carts and/or vehicles to bargaining unit employees when necessary to perform their assigned duties.

4. If a bargaining unit employee receives notice of the suspension or revocation of their California Driver’s License, said employee shall immediately report the same to his/her immediate supervisor. An employee’s failure to report either the notice of or actual revocation or suspension of said license, may lead to discipline, up to and including termination. Where necessary, the University shall reassign said employee's job duties; however, said reassignment shall not exceed thirty (30) days unless the University and the Union agree to a greater period of extension, which said agreement shall be reduced to writing.

ARTICLE 33 – PARKING A. General Provisions

1. The University shall provide parking to the same extent and under the same conditions as normally provided for other unrepresented University non-management staff employees, except that parking permits issued to bargaining unit employees working the graveyard shift (i.e., Night Permit) will be effective in the assigned parking area at the rate of $40.00.

APPENDIX G - SIDE LETTER

Family and Medical Leave — Military Caregiver Leave

An eligible employee may take Military Caregiver Leave to care for a family member or next of kin who is a covered service member undergoing medical treatment, recuperation or therapy for a serious injury or illness.

a. Leave Entitlement

An eligible employee is entitled to up to twenty-six (26) workweeks of Military Caregiver Leave during a single 12-month leave period. For purposes of this type of Family and Medical Leave only, a single 12-month leave period is the period beginning the first day an employee takes leave to care for the covered service member and ends twelve (12) months after that date. Leave is applied on a per-covered service member, per-injury basis. Eligible employees may take more than one period of twenty-six (26) workweeks of leave if the leave is to care for a different covered service member or to care for the same service member with a subsequent serious injury or illness, except that no more than twenty-six (26) workweeks of leave may be taken within any single 12-month period. If an eligible employee does not use all of his/her 26 workweeks of leave entitlement to care for a covered service member during this single 12- month leave period, the remaining part of the 26 workweeks entitlement to care for the covered service member for that serious injury or illness is forfeited.

b. Reduced Schedule or Intermittent Leave

This leave may be taken on an intermittent or reduced schedule basis. If the employee's need for intermittent or reduced schedule leave is foreseeable based on planned medical treatment, the employee should consult with his/her supervisor and make a reasonable effort to schedule the treatment so as to minimize the disruption to the University's operations. In addition, if the need for intermittent or reduced schedule leave is foreseeable based on planned medical treatment, the University may require the employee to transfer temporarily (during the period when intermittent or reduced schedule leave is required) to an alternative position for which the employee is qualified and that better accommodates recurring periods of leave than the employee's regular position.

c. Documentation and Certification

Employees may be required to provide a certification completed by an authorized health care provider of the covered service member that provides information necessary to establish entitlement to Military Caregiver Leave. In addition, employees may be required to provide certain information (or have the covered service members provide information) establishing that the service member is a covered service member for purposes of Military Caregiver Leave, his/her relationship with the employee, and an estimate of the leave needed to provide the care.

d. Substitution of Paid Leave Benefits for Military Caregiver Leave

An employee may elect to substitute accrued vacation (or CTO, if applicable) and/or up to twelve (12) workweeks of sick leave for unpaid Military Caregiver Leave. If an employee wishes to take unpaid Military Caregiver Leave and the employee's vacation accrual balance (or CTO balance, if applicable) is at the maximum" the employee will be required to use at least 10 percent of accrued vacation or CTO prior to taking unpaid Military Caregiver Leave.
